we always waste young talent, look at afflalo..... Daye gone comeback to hurt us, he got the height, and the shot, when he goes somewhere else, he gone ball......he definetly needs help on defense, but he could be productive off the bench.....Daye is certainly on franks S-list......

I was initially a big fan of Daye, but he seemed to crumble under pressure last year instead of rising to the occasion when his number was called. He never took advantage of his opportunities. Perhaps he needs to keep doing more push ups.

While Austin has made some strides as far as pushups and such, he still struggles with shooting. Coach Frank seems more concerned with the shooting and disregards AD's progress in the other areas. Is this fair?....maybe not...but that's the way Coach Frank runs this team.

Frank gotta figure out which Players to match up with these different teams, this is a team of pros! Everybody has bad days, everybody on the team can ball, it's how you use them. If we stay with way we are playing, we are screwed...if stuckey is off, put somebody else in, let AD play the " 2 ".. What's the worst that can happen, we lose? He would slow his man, with his height at least, or use his five fouls.. Remember we used TP like that with Kobe and it worked......

Glad to be on here, thanks... I just think he playin him in the wrong spot, he could give him a play where he can catch a OOPS.. To be that tall, he can move, we need a secret weapon... It would work....

"He only took two shots, but he was engaged in the boards in terms of keeping balls alive," Frank said Tuesday. "He took an NBA foul against (Blake) Griffin when he got beat on an early post-up. He made simple plays. He also made some mistakes. For a guy who hasn't really played the entire year, I thought he did well."It's an adjustment. When you're not playing, you'll do anything to play. Austin, the whole thing in his NBA career is what's his best position? You have a guy who can do different things at each spot."

"I played pretty well," Daye said. "I'm trying to stick with it. I'm still being aggressive, trying to make plays. I'm trying not to be tentative. I just want to be aggressive. When you're aggressive, you make plays."

"I'm very, very proud of Austin ... just to see the development and maturity," Frank said. "Every single player in the NBA wants to play. The guys that are able to fit in the league in a reserve role are the guys who get it from a professional expectation every single day."Austin has been very, very good every day."

"I'm older," said Daye, 24. "When you're a kid and things don't go your way, you want them to go your way no matter what. As a man, you have to mature and you have to make things happen on your own."Daye is averaging 2.3 points and 1.2 rebounds in six games this season. Only Khris Middleton and Slava Kravtsov have played less than Daye.

"My goal is get my weight from 200 to 300 pounds and become best player in the league within 2 years. The strength training that Arnie has put me through caused me to take a step back, but now I'm taking a step forward right back to where I was. In time, I will take another step and it very well could be forward again, in which case I will have traveled- not in the basketball sense, but metaphorically.

This quote threw me because it's not real, the satire is really subtle, and I'm not catching the reference.
